UDI HD+ Drone with Camera (Lime Green), Bonus Battery & 1-Key Control – Easy-Fly Drones for Kids Camera Drone Features Headless Mode & 720p HD Drone Camera – UDI Drones with Camera (Model U818A)
This drone is the upgraded version, so I knew it was worth the $10 price jump. The total cost is just $99, which is worth it for me since it has an upgraded camera. I am pretty experienced in drones, but I wanted to buy one for my daughter. She always wants to fly mine, but I thought it would be nicer if she had a drone of her own that she would be able to fly with me. I really liked this one and chose it because of the great features it has. I definitely think it was worth the $100 I spent.
Best Features
This drone comes with an extra battery for added flight time. That is always nice because the longer you can fly, the better it is. The camera is also upgraded to 720p HD, so the pictures come out very clear for not being a GoPro or other sports action camera. The 1-Key control is what really sold me. I knew my daughter isn’t as experienced as I am, so I wanted to get her a drone that she wouldn’t have a hard time putting in the air and landing. This drone does it all for you, so I never have to worry about her crashing the drone.

Pros
This camera is ready to fly right out of the box. There isn’t anything to install, and it is pretty easy to charge up for flight. My daughter absolutely loved the lime green color, and it also made it very easy to see when it was flying high up in the sky. It flies very smooth for a $100 drone, and I am actually very impressed with the quality.
Cons
The only thing I would change is the amount of flight time. Even with two batteries you only get about 7 minutes flight time.
Final Verdict
All in all, I am pretty impressed with this drone. My daughter likes it a lot, so that is really all that matters. I think if you are looking for a drone that will be good for children of beginners, then this one is perfect since it is just about $100.
